LaunchControl XL Light Mapper

Hi all.

I try to build a patch for LaunchControl XL.
I build one but I am sure there is a better way to do that.

The one that I patched, works but it is not optimised. I try to explain.

I made a user template for the LaunchControl Device. All midi messages are sent on channel 13, and I affect specific CC numbers for the knobs, buttons, and faders.

I observed that there are 3 possible colors for the button, and different intensity for each color.

Send the CC with code 2 = 60 turn on the red Light
Send the CC with code 2 = 15 turn on the green Light
Send the CC with code 2 = 127 turn on the white/yellow Light

I use a mapper values to adapt the color that I want to each button.

This is my Patch :
LED Mapper LaunchControl-XL.pat
LaunchCntrol-XL

I tried to find a way with the matrix or array to build this kind of patch. I would have a more flexible way to assign colors to buttons, whatever the CC number.

I dreamed a way of choosing each color for each buttons in a list box or something like.

I’d like this patch should be useful With LaunchControl XL and LaunchControl.

I imagine assigning the CC numbers or Note ON, by pressing the buttons, and chose the right color in a list box.


I don’t know, something more flexible and useful.

I try to analyse the “LAUNCHPAD wizard.pat”, but I didn’t understand and can’t find a way to do that I planned.

My Patch works fine, and I will play with it. But perhaps someone could help me to make it better.

Thank you.

Not easy to help you, maybe joffo who create the wizard can maybe help more,
i have this controller, but not the same template, so your patch don't work for me, maybe share your template ?

Ok here one,
to use it , i have change a bit the template , don't worry, just transform the 4 first toggle in momentary mode, cause you can choose this directly in Usine now.
For each switch you can choose color ( v r j ) for vert/rouge/jaune and choose betwen T (toggle) or M (momentary)
in the workspace, there's also 4 switches to test, here i simply drag the switch with [CTRL+Shift] to create a bind

Hello.

The Patch works fine. But I should connect my switches and buttons in my workspace with bind to the LaunchControl XL Patch switches. If I use Midi Learn on my switches and buttons, it works if there are in Momentary Mode, but it doesn’t work if I need Toggle Mode. The only way I find is to work with bind between LaunchControl XL Patch and my switches.

Why not, it seems OK. I hope binds doesn’t need too much CPU.

Thank you.

Strange , no issue here to use Midi learn, once a switch is set to T on the patch ?
maybe check the switch settings panel/midi and force the toggle mode ?

You are right! My switches were not in toggle mode. I cleared all my midi learn and restart to learn for all switches. There are now set in toggle mode automatically and everything works fine!
Great and thank you very much.
